Store time smtp proxy

Snova
Hi!

For how long does the SMTP-Proxy store inbound mails?

Background: We need to replace the mailserver which ASL sends the mails to (after virus- and spamchecking). We can't afford a single mail to be sent back because of a non existent smtp route destination. So, how much time do we have to replace the mailserver?

    dangerous smattering here as well, but 4 hours seems a bit short.

    we physicaly moved our exchange backend from one datacenter to another, with an outage of approx. 16 hours and no mail was lost.

    i think the sender will get notified after 4 hours that his mail is delayed. 

    i guess that the relay will try 4 to 7 days before finaly giving up and send back an error to the sender...
